Top Style: These roller skates come with a smooth steel top plate. 'Smooth' top styles have smooth steel top, ideal for mounting the rollers to equipment or as a base unit for a variety of top modifications.

Type: Swivel roller used for turns, even in the tightest of corners. These swivel skates come with lockable turntables, called 'swivel-locking' tops. These spring-loaded locks can engage every 45° (degrees).

Top Styles:

The pattern of the top plate should be selected in accordance with the application. Four basic patterns are available:

Diamond: Diamond tops have a spike-like steel grid able to grip into wood and provide a secure move for crated or palletized equipment.

Padded: Padded tops with built-in neoprene pad allow some compression and provide a non-slip surface, a versatile choice for moving on less than perfect floor or for moving metal based machines

Diamond grid: Diamond top pattern where more aggressive load-gripping traction is required.

Smooth: Smooth tops have smooth steel top, ideal for mounting the rollers to equipment or as a base unit for a variety of top modifications.

Roller Material Characteristics:

Nylon: Nylon roller material is an all-purpose wheel that allows for good floor protection with high durability. The wheels will not sag and deform if left under the load for a period of time. The hard material rolls easily but when encountering an obstacle, debris can get embedded causing the roller material to crack over time.

Polyurethane: Polyurethane roller material provides even better floor protection that their nylon counterparts with good durability. Poly is a softer wheel that provides excellent floor protection for smooth, painted, finished, sealed or tiled floors. Soft roller sags under max load, as a result it is slightly more difficult to roll. It is resistant against embedding of debris.

Steel: Steel roller material provides the best wear characteristics with the highest durability compared to nylon or poly. This roller material is ideal for non-sensitive, durable floors in rough and tough environments such as construction areas. Rolls easily. Steel will possibly scratch floors especially during turns.
